UPDATE: USA/ARG at the Meadowlands

The US Soccer Federation announced that the rumored US/Argentina match will in fact be at New Meadowlands Stadium in E. Rutherford, N.J. on March 26.  In addition, they have filled the international date set for three days later: vs. Paraguay, at LP Field in Nashville.

I'm both intrigued and confused by the venue selection for the latter match.  Nashville hosted a WC qualifier last year (the Jozy Altidore hat trick).  The match drew 27,000+, which is solid (I guess) for a southern city without professional soccer (their fourth-division club is horrendous and struggles to draw a couple hundred a game).  However, given all this discussion about contracts between stadiums and the federation, this has to mean that Nashville is doing something right, and something that Seattle refuses to do.
